Silver lining, where did you go?
Ana banana,
I won’t be at your funeral, babe. But my heart will be there and I’m quietly just sobbing in Singapore. I’m sorry you never got to visit and I’m sorry I never went back to visit.
All the sorrys don’t matter now though. What mattered is that the time we spent together - we had fun. We were each other’s support system - we used to write and we used...

Wow. I’m kinda speechless too, after I read this. Part of me just wants to believe that she was just hurt and this is how she copes with the pain.

I mean, outside of child abuse stuff… For those of you who aren’t aware, Rachel Uchitel (Tiger Woods most famous of mistresses) had a fiancee who was killed in the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade center. Page Six asked her to...
Months
I’m not sure why but this was in my head, so I wrote it down. It’s just silly. I think I should write children rhymes.
September crept in full of stealth
ready to steal all of August’s wealth.
Who shall remain victor,
we shall see…
In the wings, await November babies.
December always full of joyful promises,
Soon, January will make you repent.
Disciplines will...
And in your wake, you leave memories that somehow changes the past, enhances the past.
It is now just mere facts and past existence, it hurts less and I’m grateful for that.
For all the time we had that I didn’t know and all the time we lost that we couldn’t grow from, it’s just all over now.
The next days stretch on but I’m still a child that wonders if...

Simultaneously insiders and outsiders
Quotes about Third Culture Kids
TCKs are cross-culturally mobile children, born into a first culture and raised in one or more additional cultures. Their emergent life-style produces a third culture that lacks national or cultural boundaries.c. Their roots lie in uprootedness. They fit in everywhere, nowhere in particular. They are simultaneously insiders and outsiders. TCKs perform a mediating...

Dusk
I’ve missed you for some time now.
“No”, you say. “It’s been years, perhaps a decade since I’ve last sat down with you and we chatted about nothing; just content to bask in each other’s company”.
“I’m restrained by time”, my first excuse tumbles out of my mouth before I have time to think. You sigh, shaking your head at me,...
